Tonight at Lisa's office there's a lot of work. I don't want Lisa and the others to be overtime tonight. They have to be willing to sacrifice their sleep time for the sake of work in their office.
Lisa at least need not be afraid because there is a friend of her friend who will also be overtime tonight. They work like robots. No rest, just work and work.
Do not remember now what time, they only have to finish the work tonight so that tomorrow is not sprayed by the boss.
The clock is 21:45. One of Lisa's friends stood up and relaxed his hands all day typing laptop.
“Eh, guys! the cave is finished nih.. cave go home first yes!” fikri. Then Lisa and her four friends immediately opened their voices.
“Eh don't do it dong! Wait why are we?!!” said Fadia.
“Iya! Wait for us!! We go home together! Don't go first!” beautiful Words.
“Iya dong Fik!” said Angel.
“How great are you if you leave us!!” says Rossy, the guy who stays focused on his desk laptop.
“Haduhh.. Eat it dong! Work like me. Fast and efficient!” fikri said he was proud.
“Start again dehh” murmured Angel from his desk.
“Just no one goes home before everything is done!” resolute Beautiful.
“Iya deh yes.” Fikripun had to give up.
Everything is back to focusing on their laptops. As soon as possible to complete the file. It wouldn't be funny if tonight they're staying in this 15-story office.
Half an hour later..
“Yess!! I'm done!” pekik Angel made all his head.
“I also finished..” said Fadia, then cleaned up his desk.
“I'm done!” lovely half screaming.
“You've Lis?” tanya Indah nongol peeked at Lisa's desk.
“A little more..” replied Lisa did not turn her head, she was very focused on her laptop.
“Finally!! Finished tooa!” rossy said, then relaxed his body.
“Where?? Home us??” asked Fikri who had been patiently waiting.
“Wait for Lisa first! Be done.” said Indah.
Lisa had tried typing as fast as her finger could. And he's finally done.
“I'm done.” said Lisa.
They went home, after cleaning their desks. The watch on Lisa's hand shows at 22:30. The six of them have split back home/cost each.
Lisa is now walking alone on the edge of a lonely road. The distance between the office and the hostel is only 500 meters, because the distance is not too far as a result he decided to walk only. Although it is very risky to be exposed to crime by bad people who may happen to be wandering around. But Lisa still emboldened herself, the streets were empty only one or two motorbikes passed.
Street lights are also dimly lit, some even die and make the streets dark. The sound of branches of trees on the side of the road is heard when there is a wind blowing. Makes a gripping atmosphere for Lisa. Non-rigid.. Just heard Lisa's footsteps. No one, quiet, silent. Lisa put her jacket down, she was cold.
“Please.. Please.” heard a female voice asking for help, her voice faintly faint. Lisa stopped, she looked around. There's no who. Lisa gulped, only this time she came home this late at midnight.
“Please.. Pl-please.. Mmmpphh” the voice sounded again, but like someone was smothering it. Lisa was getting riled up, the voice was clearly heard. He was not hallucinating or anything. The voice was clearly heard.
“Lisa..” someone called him, he observed around, no one who just there are tall trees towering along the side of the road. Ordinary tree.
“Please.. Pl-please.. Mmmpphhh” the voice was heard again, this time more clearly. The instant Lisa gave a tremendous goosebump, the voice was near her. He gulped, cold sweat pouring down his forehead. His heart rate was twice as fast, he didn't see anyone there.
“To.. Long..” The voice sounded weak, the figure turned his head towards Lisa. When Lisa closed her mouth, she was shocked to see it was a woman. It was a human. So the voice she heard was that woman's voice?, Lisa thought. Lisa was still staring, her eyes unblinking.
“Basic Woman foolh!!! I will finish you and your son off!!!” the sound of a male scream was heard, Lisa heard clearly.10 meters in front of him also seen a man standing with a knife. The man stood in front of the woman who was still lying on the ground. Lisa shut her mouth, who is she? Ask Lisa in my heart. What's he gonna do?. This time it really made Lisa scared.
“A..I'm sorry.” the woman's moans.
“Should have been you from the beginning!!!” yelled the man.
Tuss!!! The man slammed his knife into the woman's body. Lisa screamed!, she covered her face with her palm. Breath roaring. He's never seen this before..
One minute..
Three minutes..
Five minutes..
Non-rigid..
No sound, Lisa still covered her face. He was shaking violently, what had he just witnessed?. Lisa slowly ventured to open her eyes, trying to look ahead. There ain't!.
Lisa's eyes widened, she did not see who was in front of her. There's no woman, there's no man. Lisa looked around, no one. Lisa's eyes were looking for the two figures. An indistinct figure of his face. There's none. That figure no longer exists!.
Lisa ventured to continue the journey. His feet were still trembling, cold sweat slashing down his forehead. It's true that there's no who. Lisa looked around again, this is where the woman was lying. There's nothing. Not even a drop of blood exists. Lisa tried to calm herself down, whispering many times so as not to be afraid. Don'tbeafraid.. Without wanting to linger for longer in such a place, Lisa again walked in hasty steps. He didn't want to see that figure again, he wanted to go home. Although in his head there were many questions about the events he had just seen. Lisa tried to forget what she had just witnessed, but could not.
Next day.
“Yang actually Lis?” angel asked squeakingly, Lisa gave a small nod. Just now he told me about a strange incident last night that he had witnessed to a friend in his office.
“Eh, guys!!!” Suddenly Rossy shouted like getting a coupon.
All heads turned.
“This is a spit!!!” shouted Rossy, he's a typical cowardly guy. Just now when Lisa recounted a strange incident last night, Rossy immediately dispersed and entertained himself by watching television in the corner of the room. Everyone who was still in contact with Lisa immediately approached Rossy. Curious, including Lisa herself.
“Liati nih news!, I think this is what Lisa deh.” said Rossy. All eyes unblinking see news show with headline ‘Mystery Murder Has Revealed’
The narrator starts reading the news.
“It does not feel like it has been two years of murder of a woman found dead on Kenanga street. The woman was found with a sharp weapon puncture wound, discovered by a man who happened to pass around the street. Poor lady found behind a bush on the side of the road. Mirisnya again when found it turns out that the woman is pregnant with a 3-month fetus. There was no trace of who did it and the murder has remained a mystery for the past two years.
But now, the mystery of the killing of the ill-fated woman has been revealed. The police managed to bend the perpetrator who for the last two years became a fugitive. The cruel man told the police that the reason he killed the victim was because the victim did not want to shut up to realize the fact that he was the mistress of the perpetrator. The victim wants to get the perpetrator's confession and wants the perpetrator to take responsibility for his actions. But the perpetrator darkened his eyes and killed the victim. As a result of his actions, the perpetrator was sentenced to life imprisonment, and has now been languishing in prison.” the narrator finished reading the news, and displaying other news.
All eyes were staring at Lisa now, this news sounded like Lisa's story.
“It looks like the figure you saw earlier was a male figure that woman Lis.. He was killed 2 years ago on Kenanga street.” said Indah.
“Iya..” others agree.
“But why did Lisa see the incident earlier? Did it happen 2 years ago?” ask Fikri. Lisa shakes.
“The word is yes, if people die from being killed.. His spirit will not be calm, he still continues to be at the location where he was killed.. Maybe it was the spirit mallem that wanted Lisa to see the incident two years ago, the incident that made her lose her life.” said Fadia.
“Bener also say you Fad!” fikri said affirming Fadia's words.
While Lisa was confused, it turns out that the incident that she saw last night had happened at that place 2 years ago. Lisa doesn't understand everything, but she's still trying to think positively.
As a result, after confirming the desire. The next day he moved out. He did not want the midnight incident to happen again. Every time he remembered the incident, his body immediately shuddered. Lisa has to move on and she has to open up a new chapter of her life.
